Michael Bradley goes on a charge upfield through the challenges Axel Witsel, second left, Daniel Van Buyten and Vincent Kompany. So far Bradley has run 24 miles during the tournament, the furthest of all of the players

Maybe having Witsel landing on him can give Chris Wondolowski the excuse for his glaring miss at the end of 90 minutes when he spooned over from close range. Though his blushes are spared by the linesman raising his flag and giving him offside, even though he wasn't. It's goal-less at full-time so off to extra-time we go

Two minutes into extra-time, Belgium finally get the goal they've been threatening all game. Kevin De Bruyne slots the ball into the bottom left-hand corner after running on to a pull-back from Lukaku.

At the end of the first period of extra time Romelu Lukaku doubles Belgium's lead. A raking pass is played wide to De Bruyne on the left flank he holds it up before playing the ball between Cameron and Besler for Lukaku to gallop on to. He scorches down the left side of the penalty area and rifles the ball past Tim Howard

Despite going close on a few occasions the US just can't get get the equaliser and there is much relief in the Belgian ranks when the final whistle goes. The Belgium players celebrate with their fans as they are through to the quarter-finals. Final score: Belgium 2-1 USA (aet)
